What is the best business advice you’ve ever received?
It’s probably ‘learn from others’ mistakes.’ Following this advice will teach you to analyze the behavior and actions of people around you (or those who were in the same place before you) and build on their experience instead of starting from scratch and repeating their faults.Â
If you could offer one tip to someone interested in starting a new business, what would it be?
Instead of looking for the original, best profiting, or the most sought-after niche, focus on your passions and create a business you would love to invest in or use yourself. This way, you will always give your all to the project; sooner or later, it will make a difference.
Is there a particular business model or entrepreneur you admire?
At the very moment, I am excited about the ecosystem-model businesses, trying to analyze some of the best and most important ones, such as Netflix or Amazon. Their impact on society is enormous, and they also seem to remain stable despite all the ups and downs in the market.

Why are you giving advice on Business Chronicler?
I used to study business in school, at university. Also, I co-founded and managed a small business with a friend of mine. We were creating floral arrangements for weddings and other special occasions. Besides the creative part, I was also in charge of social media, content writing, promoting our business, communicating with clients, etc. My friend was the administrative brain behind the brand and we collaborated with a licensed accountant and a lawyer. We rocked that niche for a couple of years till the pandemic hit.
But, before, during, and after that period, I have always been a contributor to a few clients of my own who needed me to write business-related articles, from how to start a start-up to how to grow your business, branding strategies, and more.
So, now, I am equipped to help others find effective ways to be successful in their business endeavors.Â
What is the best business advice you’ve ever received?
Cooking up a business plan and strategic plan is important, but so is being flexible and ready to adjust your business to the continuous market changes. Also, keep your potential customers in mind at all times, doing your best to offer them Something valuable.
If you could offer one tip to someone interested in starting a new business, what would it be?
Hope for the best, and prepare for the worst-case scenario. Better safe than sorry. Also, some things are out of our control, so we should try, fail, and try again. Failure is part of the process when you start a business.
Is there a particular business model or entrepreneur you admire?Â
I really love lifestyle brands, such as Function of Beauty values and business model. They allow clients to create their own shampoo and other products formulas. I love customization and personalization in a business, and it helps to have a clear mission and values for your customers to understand. As for an entrepreneur I admire, that would be Richard Branson. He is courageous, modest, super intelligent, and hard-working.
